anderson, of a painter – returning of the native lyrics
reached a nerve, reached the might
that doused the fire and doused the light
heard cries of mothers under stones
broken souls, broken bones
felt the hunger, felt the lash
tasted blood, tasted grass
saw young daughters sold for flour
childhood wane by the hour
bought our way across pakistan
to allahabad and thailand
worked our way down through sumatra
took a beat+up boat out of eastern java
drifted through the timor sea
lifted by the joy of the family
finding that feeling of elation
as our hands touched thе soil of a better nation
but the hеll of a desert cell
the cut of the razor wire!
my lips are itching, still, from the stitching
the screams of the hunger choir!
not much more to say
from the floor of an afghan gaol
a country dedicated
to the returning of the native
